"What really happened out there, General? " I asked while cleaning Thranduil's wounds. We are currently here in Thranduil's room, chatting about what had happened why Thranduil burned his face.

"The force from the enemies are very strong and that lord Thranduil was caught on the fire of the snake from the north. I want to tell you that he was injured, M'lady but I'm afraid you'd come to the camp if you'd know. " He said while looking at the ground.

"So, what's wrong if I will go there? " I asked him curiously while cleaning the burnt on Thranduil's face. Replacing the gauze that I put last night.

"King Thranduil was worried that if I will tell you that he's seriously injured, you'll surely come there and nag him and everything --- "

"So what's the problem in nagging? Does that even hurt? " I cut him off and said angrily.

"That's not what he's worried about. He's worried that if you will leave Mirkwood, enemies would come and... " He said. So that's it. Alright, I guess I understand. Anyway, he's not my burden to bear.

"Alright. Thank you for your explanation. I understand. Do you your thing, general." I said and started to put the bandage on Thranduil's head going to his face.

"Can you also ask your daughter to come and play with little Legolas for I cannot come and attend for him today. I hope you'll look for them also. " I said as he was about to go out of the room. I look at him when I am done saying that. He just smiled at me and bows his head.

"Anything for you, M'lady. " He said and went out.

"So you are mad at me, huh? " A baritone but not so loud voice said which startled me.

"Oh my... Do you want to kill me! " I yell at Thranduil while holding my chest. It felt like my heart jumped.

"Why do you want me to? I am willing to." He said while chuckling. Because of irritation, I went near his bed and put my hands on his neck and shook him.

"If I die, you won't be the one who'll do it, damn you! " I said but instead of stopping to chuckle, he laughed loudly.

"Grrrrrrr... You ape! Ugh.... " I said and stands. I hate him. I was about to leave when he grabbed my hand.

"Let go or I'll break your hand? " I warned him. I am irritated now, I have to go out and find my cool.

"Thank you. " He said which made me look at him.

"What for? " I asked and look at him curiously.

"...." See that?  I am asking but he didn't answer it.  Such an ill-tempered elf.

"Well then... You're welcome. " I said and sarcastically smiled at him. "Now,  can you let go of my hand?  Remember that's not your hand. " I said annoyingly.  Shizzz... My mood swings.

"Will you at least sit for a while? " He said. And so I did.  I sat down beside his bed.

"What? I'm already here. You want to say something? " I said.  He's still holding my hand.

"Well... Thank you for taking good care of Legolas while I'm away. " He said.  Okay. Do I have to say something?  That's my work here right? 

"And then...  Are you done?  My hand. " I said and looked at my hand that he still holding.

"No, I'm not.  Actually I would like to ask you not to tell Legolas about my injury." He said.  I just nod at him.

"You know I can still save your other eye and put your burnt face on its original form without you, using a spell. You know medicine. " I said and looked at his bandaged face.

"I can fix it. I just actually need your permission to do the operation. " I continued when he didn't say anything.

"It's alright. " He said and let go of my hand and laid back again.

"What do you mean by that? You are agreeing? " I asked.

"No,  I don't. This will remind me that I fought many filths during this time.  I'm a warrior remember? " He said.

"Tssss.... Whatever!  Okay,  I will not touch your burnt face but how about your eye? I want to replace that... Eye. " I said.  I just have to look for someone who has the same color of eyes like him and is compatible to him.  Thank goodness I can still get medicines and apparatuses on which I can use here.  I know it's kinda magical.  I can get the medicine but I cannot go home.  So sad....
